Public Lands For The People has informed me of the upcoming proposed changes to how our natural resources and open lands would be administered. I am certainly against any proposals that embrace outside management and control of our mineral, recreational and mainline usage of our natural resources and land areas. If implemented, control would be given to groups with questionable and malicious intent and reduce our national security. We already have foreign interests controlling wide swaths of our lands and industries, many of them hostile to the US and its people. Our sovereignty is at great risk and must be against these kinds of programs.
